The FBI already decided that they weren't going to interfere in the election. They won't now. Besides, they'll just drag it out so she'll already be President.

It would seem that if she is so despised, the logical thing would have been to nominate an opponent who stood a good chance of defeating her in November. If that happens, she is most likely out of the picture forever and her detractors could live happily after. But no, they had to nominate what is most likely the only candidate that stands a good chance of losing to her. Which would then bring about 4 years of whining, crying and complaining about her.

In some ways, she is like catnip to some people; deep down they love to have her around to play with.

The problem with your theory is that you cannot PROVE she LIED. All she has to say is "I didn't notice those 3 little "C"s. If she BELIEVED that she didn't have any classified e-mails on her server, she didn't LIE - and there is NO WAY to PROVE that she didn't BELIEVE she had no classified e-mails on her server - especially considering the fact that NONE of the e-mails were properly marked as Classified (they were supposed to have a "Classified" header - but didn't). Perjury is almost impossible to prove in cases like this. So - as with the previous case, unless the FBI thinks they can PROVE the case, the FBI won't recommend prosecution and the justice department won't press charges.

So, it'll just be another futile effort on the part of the partisan GOP-led committee.

Oh, they've learned just fine.

Beating political dead horses works really well to turn out the base. Which they're going to have to do.

Well, there is that. You are correct. Problem is, to WIN they need MORE THAN THE BASE - and Trump turns those people off big time. Endless investigations do that too.

Either way, she is going to be our/your next president. The only folks that give a crap about this junk are the idiots in congress who keep trying to get her and the 20 of you on this site that keep posting this nonsense.

Long live Queen Hillary...said with a smile.

Don't be so sure....

I think if they can keep this in the spotlight until November, it may hurt Hillary in the election. It doesn't matter so much if they get a conviction or not. It fell out of the news cycle so quickly, this is a way to bring it back in. I don't think there is really any downside for the republicans to do this, as the only people it is "turning off" are people that are going to vote for Hillary anyway. I think if they keep saying she's a liar, she's a crook, it will eventually stick in people's heads, if it hasn't already.

That is their desire, not in actually holding her accountable for something.

Well....yeah! This is politics. You play the cards you are dealt. I'm sure holding her accountable would be a nice bonus though.
